While the summer is generally a quiet time for projects on the ground, we are never standing still. We are currently evaluating our stock levels for the coming season, and testing new systems to determine their suitability for our region and our requirements.

The start of the new season has arrived and we are gearing up for a busy period. During the summer we have spent time evaluating our systems and investigating new solutions and equipment for the region.

Nothing is impossible in Dubai, and although it may sound like an Aprils Fools joke, we were called in to assist in the creation of a snow covered sand dune for a music video shoot this month! Working with Desert Snow, we installed a large quantity of TerraTrak to provide a firm and stable base for the actors and production crew to operate on. The challenging part was to create a slope where the snow could be applied, allowing the actors to slide down while being filmed.

March was no less busy for us, and we had a wide range of interesting and diverse projects to work on.

The Mother of the Nation Festival required a large quantity of TerraTrak to provide access for all the contractors involved in creating this large scale event. Although we installed in February, we were active on site throughout March to provide back up and support for all of our customers.

Another busy start to the year for the team at TerraTech. Our equipment and services were called upon for a wide range of projects throughout January and February, all over the Emirates. In fact it was so busy, there is not enough space to list them all! But to give you an idea, the following is a brief snap shot.

Welcome to our new and refreshed website. With the start of the winter season almost upon us, we decided to have a revamp and ensure that everything is up to date.

Regular visitors to the website will notice that we’ve added more information, more products and more images to ensure that we remain the first choice for trackway, event floor and pontoon systems in the region.

The fresh new look has been designed to make the site easier to navigate, allowing you to find the information that you need faster. We will also be updating the news section regularly, as we have some interesting and innovative products on the way.

During December we added new vehicles to our fleet to ensure that we can reach our customers, wherever they may be and whenever they need us. The addition of a new crew bus ensures our team arrive on time and fresh, while a new 4x4 pick up allows us to access the many challenging environments and locations that we work in.

Working in the desert is never easy. Getting people, equipment, props and actors in to remote locations and setting up base camps is even more challenging! TerraTech was chosen to support two major film shoots in 2014, creating access solutions and work pads deep inside the Empty Quarter and beyond.

With multiple locations operating simultaneously, timing and efficiency was critical. Our experience in working in the harshest conditions was invaluable. Our crews installed trackway in the remote sites, and were then on standby for the duration of the project, to undertake modifications and relocations.
